Hard-swingin' version with lots of oomph behind it. Sweet show.

A dynamite set opener, worth the ride in spite of some rough aud/soundboard patches.

Phil in good form, high energy and an epic 1st set. A must for '73 fans.

More hard rockin' than others in the tour. Stretches out a bit more too, though rough in places has great energy.

Dancin' in the Streets

Rises and rises into new shapes during the last minutes, but there's an unfortunate cut....

Almost makes cocaine seem olde-timey and innocent.

Capitol Theater

Just exactly perfect. Sweet vocals, beautiful harmonies, nice mix - thank's tapers! Jerry's solo about 3 minutes in is quite different from others, exploring block chord voicings and an angular twanging clanging thang that sounds almost... Bobbyish(?!?), but it's Jer, and it fits perfectly.

Jer's guitar tone is sublime. He's burnin' down the world here.

Good catch. Jerry's fills around Bobby's lyrical phrasing and the exquisite tone he was getting out of his axe make this one really special. The two are totally synched up and this one could be way higher on the list. The way they build up towards the climax is brilliant.
